60 of 138 · most liked firstI love Carpenter too much to pick a favorite movie of his, but Prince of Darkness is up there. incredibly effective horror film because it grounds Satan's & the Anti-God's existence in physics & mathematics. evil as scientific fact. and there are no rituals or magic to exorcise it -- it's inevitable
positive · AI labelView post →i love Tim Curry 😭 my fav role of his was Prince of Darkness in Legend, one of the best performances I've ever seen in film

neutral · AI labelView post →The Prince of Darkness is great. It’s an old John Carpenter film with great cast of early 80’s character actors.
positive · AI labelView post →Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Nightmare mode - has to be a box office bomb or not mainstream but actually good. I’m dropping Prince of Darkness, one of John Carpenters less spoken about films. But also … wow what a film! 🍿

He gives good advice. RIP Prince of Darkness. youtu.be/63ApcpF-NLw?...
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s giving Prince of Darkness energy. You spend a chunk of the film going “who the fuck is that coming out of the church?” And then the reveal. I love it so much!
positive · AI labelView post →#WyrdWednesday Prince of Darkness (Oct 1987) might have my favorite atmospherics of any spooky movie, with foreboding opening shots of campus and sky, great soundtrack by Carpenter, the dream broadcasts, mirror scenes, the ending... "We are using your brain's electrical system as a receiver..."
positive · AI labelView post →Much love being expressed for John Carpenter's PRINCE OF DARKNESS - here's my Letterboxd take... #FilmSky boxd.it/aaVXbr

neutral · AI labelView post →Day 8: One Horror movie I recommend Prince of Darkness (1987) #filmsky #moviesky #horrorsky
positive · AI labelView post →Unironically, when I watch a new horror movie, or one I haven't seen, I will just cleanse my palate with a horror movie I have seen before. "Jeesh that movie was intense and bleak. Going to watch Prince of Darkness to cheer me up."
positive · AI labelView post →My favorite version of Satan in film. PRINCE OF DARKNESS is top tier Carpenter.
positive · AI labelView post →So many amazing films here (Trick R Treat, Prince Of Darkness, The Exorcist III to name a few), but Dead & Buried fucking rips. One of the great pleasures of my life so far has been showing it for a movie night and having people lose their minds over it. Great small town, gloomy vibes. Mia watch.
neutral · AI labelView post →Spooky Season `25, Night 18. I re-watched Prince of Darkness (1987) on Blu-ray. An underrated Carpenter film, I love how he mixes science, science fiction, and religion to create cosmic horror. He also knows when to go for it, without fully explaining what the heck is going on. Pure, ominous vibes.
positive · AI labelView post →Here's a short 🧵none of you have been asking for - favourite horror movie opening credits. A lost art perhaps. Kicking it off with the extraordinary 10m18s opening of John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness It looks gorgeous. Parses a lot of plot/character info while building intrigue. 🖤
neutral · AI labelView post →At the @academymuseum.bsky.social to see THEY LIVE for the first time!! AND it’s in one of the most gorgeous cinemas in the world AND the Prince of Darkness, John Carpenter is here to talk about the movie!! 🕶️
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched The Void (2016) tonight, and I liked it pretty well! Basically like if you took John Carpenter's The Thing, Prince of Darkness, and In the Mouth of Madness and rolled it into one movie
neutral · AI labelView post →In a crowded field with many contenders, this is my favourite Hammer film. Plague of the Zombies comes close, as does Dracula - Prince of Darkness and many, many others - but this is the one. There's an air of eerie, desolate loneliness to it that's almost unique.
neutral · AI labelView post →"God's not supposed to be a hack horror writer!" is a concept that's stuck with me since I first watched this movie And agree! Carpenter is great with existential horror. Honestly Prince of Darkness is one of the only horror films I want a remake of.
positive · AI labelView post →So tonight's film is Prince of Darkness. It's not top on my personal list of John Carpenter's best, which are The Thing, They Live, Big Trouble in Little China, Assualt on Precint 13, Halloween, and In the Mouth of Madness. It also hasn't quite aged as well as the others.
neutral · AI labelView post →Remember the sentient, physical essence of Satan from the 1987 John Carpenters film Prince Of Darkness, Bart? Well he’s back- in orb form!
neutral · AI labelView post →John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness is a film that boldly asks "What if the Devil was a vial of Green Ooze and it possessed quirky smart girls?"
neutral · AI labelView post →In the time of “Ninety For Chill”, a celebration of 90-minute movies, CatBusRuss & @amindonfire.bsky.social compose marathons to discuss “The Exorcist”. Russ brings “Evil Dead 2”, “Prince of Darkness”, & “Possessor”. Jon brings “Demons”, “St. Maud”, & “Event Horizon”. #filmsky #moviesky #horrorsky

neutral · AI labelView post →Night 9 of Halloween, and we're watching "Prince of Darkness" (1987). Tonight's movie is brought to you by the letters: W, T, and F. It wasn't bad, just kind of strange, but kept our interest. A priest discovers an underground religious site that stores a container of the devil in liquid form. 6/10

neutral · AI labelView post →Tonight's second movie (when the sun goes down) for my Season of Scares Horror Movie Watch-a-Thon and #100HorrorMoviesIn92Days is PRINCE OF DARKNESS Not sure why I've not gotten around to watching this one, but tonight that changes. 72/100 #HorrorSky
neutral · AI labelView post →This is like an in-universe fictional video from a 1990s dystopian science fiction movie about a dark 21st century, except 1-it comes off even *more creepy* than the "This is not a dream" sequence from the John Carpenter film "Prince of Darkness", and 2-It's fucking real and it really pisses me off.
neutral · AI labelView post →PRINCE OF DARKNESS: man, it is so refreshing to watch a 2.35:1 widescreen film photographed by someone who actually knows how to compose for that frame. Also, it’s not murky!
positive · AI labelView post →Just watched Prince of Darkness with some friends. That movie holds up so well. Genuinely unsettling all the way through.
positive · AI labelView post →Sorry, I was referring to a part of the [Prince of Darkness movie](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093777/) > Words on computer screen: "You will not be saved by the holy ghost. You will not be saved by the god Plutonium. In fact, YOU WILL NOT BE SAVED!" As that movie has people sending messages back from the future using dreams plot element.
neutral · AI labelView post →The way this reminded me more of Prince of Darkness, the film where Satan is transmitted via fluids.
neutral · AI labelView post →I think ItMoM is his best film. With The thing, Prince of Darkness and Escape From New York swapping slots in my top 5 depending on my mood that day.
positive · AI labelView post →This was the last film in John Carpenter's "Apocalypse Trilogy", together with The Thing (1982), and 'Prince Of Darkness' (1987). It's a Lovecraftian-style story about the effect of "collective reality" -- and, frankly? We're soaking in something close to this film, right now.
neutral · AI labelView post →If you haven't seen Pontypool (tense little quasi-zombie film), I always think it's worth a go. Prince of Darkness (1987) is a little slow, but it's a fave. And if you haven't caught the OG Ju-On/Grudge films and you like some ghosts, you REALLY should.

positive · AI labelView post →I've loved it for decades. I only just watched Carpenter's [_Prince of Darkness_](https://eggplant.place/movie/1JMiB1nDYrxMMv3faoDw7t) for the first time last Saturday and I was also like "How the hell did I never watch this before?!"
positive · AI labelView post →My favorite Carpenter film is Prince of Darkness, but I'm prejudiced cause I pass by the Church in the film (now a community arts center) fairly regularly. The Thing though, the hopelessness and fear. Love it.
positive · AI labelView post →Now I’m curious, were you loosely inspired by John Carpenters, “Prince Of Darkness”, when you came up with this idea? Cause I’m definitely getting strong vibes of that movie judging from the intro and music.
neutral · AI labelView post →Do appreciate that in this film versus Prince of Darkness and The Thing, the main character has no heroic motive. Trent is always out for himself.
neutral · AI labelView post →This is a great and fun film, Barbara Shelley before she would play in another great vampire film in the form of Dracula: Prince of Darkness.
neutral · AI labelView post →What's a "comfort" horror film you don't mind playing often? I love "Prince of Darkness." Yeah, it's not perfect, but I love the unnerving atmosphere, the ideas at play, and how it subverts tropes and expectations. #horror #movies #horrormovies
positive · AI labelView post →Which proves just how interestingly subjective film is, most consider Prince of Darkness the best of the sequels, and quintessential Hammer. I do love it, but for me this beats it...

positive · AI labelView post →He was in a good one: Prince of Darkness and was a main star in a werewolf movie called Monster Dog
neutral · AI labelView post →The entity in Prince of Darkness. If we want an avatar, Alice Cooper’s character in the movie. Ok fine it’s my second favorite horror sci-fi after Event Horizon and I wanted to mention it before spooky season so people watch it.
positive · AI labelView post →I wish there were more Cosmic Horror films. And that little sci-fi twist in Prince of Darkness was unexpected and elevated the film.
positive · AI labelView post →Am I dreaming? That green color. That looks like the liquid in the tube in the Prince of Darkness movie. www.imdb.com/title/tt0093...
neutral · AI labelView post →Hot take, but I actually think Prince of Darkness is the best film in Carpenter's "apocalypse trilogy". He was also up front about the fact that his actual inspiration came from a book about quantum physics, rather than religion itself.
positive · AI labelView post →I think this is ultimately why I bounced on it. Religious horror generally never clicks with me, as someone who just wasn't raised with religion in any real way. The closest thing to a religious horror film that I love is Prince of Darkness, and that's more sci-fi using religious jargon.
positive · AI labelView post →#204 - Prince of Darkness (1987) ★★★½ Review: boxd.it/f9K8gT
positive · AI labelView post →Still a fun movie I've watched over and over. Alongside the Thing and They Live. I also really like In the Mouth of Madness and I think Prince of Darkness is an underrated Carpenter film.
